Flex is database independant. There is no data classes with Flex, unless you 
are working with AIR. With Flex you connection to your data using either 
ColdFusion RemoteObjects or Web Services with any (CF, PHP, .NET, etc) so it is 
more based on what each language can use (which is all of them) and your 
confort with programming with each. I am a CF developer and I use CFCs to 
manage my data with my Flex application. 

Deciding on a database is should be more based on the size of your project and 
your confort level with each. MySQL, MSSQL, and Oracle can all handle high 
transactions and heavy loads for most small, medium, and large web application. 
Access is never a great choice due to limited connections and file size. Access 
is cute, but not a good choice for an application that is going to grow.
